Feeling Wanderlust? For days when life feels like a blur and your mind won’t stop racing, this piece steps in as a gentle pause button—inviting you to breathe, look out, and simply be.
The Story Behind the Art
Inspiration often strikes when you aren’t looking for it—usually when you’re too busy to notice.
This piece was born from a frantic, beautiful blur of a day. My partner and I were on a day trip to Montevideo, exhausted and literally racing the clock to catch our ferry back to Buenos Aires. Our minds were buzzing with schedules and departure times.
Then, we saw her.
Walking along the coast, amidst our own chaos, there was a girl standing quietly at the water’s edge. She was just watching the sea and the birds—calm, grounded, and completely present. The contrast hit me instantly: the world was moving fast, but she had chosen to pause.
I created this design to capture that specific feeling of hitting the brakes. The teal water holds a cooling, cleansing energy, while the warm sunset tones echo the "second wind" you get at the end of a long day. The soft, blocky shapes are intentional, suggesting how moments blur into memory, leaving behind only how they felt.
This isn’t just coastal art; it’s a permission slip to find your own pause button, even when life is pulling you toward the next ferry.
